A tax certificate is an interest-bearing lien on a tax-delinquent property that can be converted into a deed after a three-year redemptive period. Certificates are sold by a taxing authority at a public auction for the amount of the delinquent taxes due, plus any accrued interest, penalties, costs and other statutory impositions, a news release said.

In Louisiana, tax certificate purchasers receive a 5 percent penalty and an interest rate of 1 percent per month for the duration of the three-year redemptive period. Tax certificate sales are a low-bid-wins style auctions, in which the property is sold to the purchaser willing to bid on the least percent ownership interest in the property. If the property is not redeemed by the delinquent owner within the three-year redemptive period, the investor can file to acquire ownership in the property based on his or her bid amount.

Winning bidders of the tax sale are expected to pay for their purchases within 24 hours of the close of the auction. Payment must be made in one installment, and all sales are final.
